Spence and Lillian Wolfe at their Cupertino Bike Shop. They only dealt in quality lightweights and became West Coast (of U.S.A.) importers for Cinelli frames. Spence was also a bike mechanic of "guru" stature and collaborated with the Phil Wood company on their component designs.

Read here about a 1969 Cinelli with "Alpine" Gearing by Spence Wolfe. A 1970 Cinelli ordered through the Cupertino Bike shop here.

Your web page says Spence ran Cupertino bikes in Cupertino until 1977. Actually he moved the shop to Asilomar near Carmel in 1975 or 76 beforeselling it (when Rob Jensen moved it to Santa Clara before Vance Sprock moved it back to Cupertino). I bought wheels and parts from Spence inthe early 70s and one of his last Cinelli road frames in '76. He was such a nice guy that when the bottom bracket cable guide came off he soldered it back and sent the frame to CycleArt in SoCal for a new Imronpaint job (considerably nicer than the original) free of charge!
